According to Snopes, these images are real, however they are not related to the Colonial Pipeline ransomware attack, and were taken in March 2019 in Huauchinango, Mexico. The bags were filled by two men trying to steal gasoline from a gas station there. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/hoarding-gas-plastic-bags/
